Although we’re definitely proponents of being kind, there’s nothing quite like giving someone the cold shoulder—literally. Plus-size off-the-shoulder tops have been popping up everywhere this season, so it’s high time we gave them a little attention. Break out those strapless bras, because once you see all the adorable ways brands are designing these off-the-shoulder tops, you won’t be able to resist stocking up on a few for the warm days ahead.
Finding the perfect warm-weather tops to add to one’s wardrobe isn’t always easy—but it’s certainly easier when you know what trends to keep an eye on. While off-the-shoulder shirts and blouses aren’t the new kids on the block, they are having a major moment right now. Luckily, this trend is a breeze to wear with just about any summery bottom (We stan versatility!) and available in so many Instagram-worthy colors and patterns. Pair an off-the-shoulder top with your favorite high-waisted jeans or throw one on with a matching maxi skirt. You’ll be amazed at how well these blouses fit in with all your spring and summer staples.
And in case you aren’t an avid online shopper, let us assure you that so many brands are truly treasure troves of plus-size off-shoulder tops this season. Mustard yellows, trendy animal prints and summery stripes abound, and we’re ready to shop them all. Whether classic black tops are your year-round uniform or you make it your prerogative to wear as many floral pieces as you can during the spring, you’ll find off-the-shoulder iterations of just about everything.
So do yourself a favor and let the sun shine on your shoulders this season. Sure, you may end up with a weird shoulders-only tan, but that’s just the price you pay to look absolutely adorable all spring and summer long. Is it worth it? Definitely.
